[WeakAura] Tombstone's Conditions
MMO-Champion
I guess they did do some reshoots at some point, but not sure why/when/what. They had plenty of extra work time with the movie, but couldn't seem to see the flaws that are obvious to many.Originally Posted by Egomaniac

I Google "Ww84 is bad" just for shits and giggles. We all know what's bad about the movie but I wanted to see the overreactions. What I never considered where the valid accusations of the r-word against this movie, especially in terms of Gal Gadot's history. If you thought men came out of the movie looking bad, Arabs in general got it worse. Even the Soviets were painted as sympathetic but the Arabs are nothing more but sectarian gun slinging oil barrens. There's also mentions of a scene where Gadot saves 4 kids in the movie in comparison to some views she expressed and past as a IDF soldier. She can't help being an IDF soldier, the views she expressed were her own though. I don't really have any connections to what her critics were talking about but there concerns were valid.

Wonder woman gets her old boyfriend back from last movie, but in another man's body that he takes over for a while... Originally Posted by notJoyful

What about his life? Did he have a girlfriend? Wife? Family? Movie ignores it.
One reason people talk about it, if it had happened to a woman, the woke mob would have been triggered, but since it was a man, it's ignored..
it's to bring up the hypocrisy n stuff..

My thought is they probably didn't want to have good cat cgi, to have it blurry, cuz they were afraid the movie would be associated with that shit movie Cats... Originally Posted by apelsinjuice

They have sex etc. The wish is revoked and everything goes back to normal. Steve’s spirit is sent back to where it came from I’d imagine.
Diana bumps into random guy, chats a bit and he goes on his way, apparently none the wiser as to what had occurred.
Probably don’t need to spoiler it at this point but what the hell...

The guy gets chatted up by a beautiful woman who comments on his clothes, and he doesn’t bother to get her number or ask about coffee or whatnot later? He’s in some kind of committed relationship, simply based on how badly basically any other guy is shown to be in the movie. Originally Posted by Ihavewaffles

its absolutely NOT ignored. stop saying this - there is a multitude of articles, talking about it - in publications that are typically pointing out when this happens to women. even Mary Sue had a major problem with it. https://www.themarysue.com/ww84-majo...-steve-trevor/ https://www.cbr.com/wonder-woman-1984-consent-problem/ https://www.thewrap.com/lets-talk-ab...uy-chris-pine/ https://collider.com/wonder-woman-19...urn-explained/ Originally Posted by Ihavewaffles

I very specifically selected left leaning sources to link, and that's just from two minutes of googling to find the links (I have read most of these, but didn't save the links)

Best movie I watched on Sunday.

I’ve just watched Wonder Woman 1984. I’m disappointed, the first part (2017) was much cooler, more emotional and touching.

Finally seen that movie, and I got to say, after all the hate I've read here and there, it finally was an acceptable movie imo. A shitloads of clichés, another movie breaking DC's continuity after Aquaman, the uselessness of having that happening in 1984 except for cheap winks to this era, but overall it was okay. I was expecting worse.
On the other hand, I think I wasn't ready for that level of CGI. I'm pretty sure we were really close to see the strings on Wonder Woman when she was "flying", and most of the lassoing stuff were ugly af. Same as when she saved the stupid blind/deaf children playing on the road (so original), the fall was... ugly af, and children were obviously puppets, rofl.
But otherwise good perf of Pedro Pascal, okayish performance of Wonder Woman, good rhythm, and great soundtrack especially during the first (useless) scene in Themyscira.
